鍛煉身體不停息！
為了擁有健康身體和苗條身材，我們大多數(shù)人都會(huì)馬上想到節(jié)食。我們認(rèn)為，只要能吃得少一點(diǎn)，很快就能變得苗條、快樂，生活中的問題就會(huì)煙消云散。
節(jié)食確實(shí)是一個(gè)方法，但是節(jié)食會(huì)非常痛苦，會(huì)給心理帶來損害。那么，為什么不考慮一下另外一種方法呢？可能并不是我們吃得太多，而是我們鍛煉的太少了。我們大多數(shù)人生活中慣于久坐，很少活動(dòng)，沒有坐在辦公桌旁的時(shí)候，我們總是坐在公共汽車上、火車上、汽車?yán)锘蛘唠娨暀C(jī)前，我們很少出去輕快地散步，更不用說運(yùn)動(dòng)量再大一點(diǎn)的鍛煉方式了。
經(jīng)常鍛煉身體，你就可以吃好吃飽，還不會(huì)危及你的身材。鍛煉身體，或者更好一點(diǎn)，參加體育運(yùn)動(dòng)&&因?yàn)轶w育運(yùn)動(dòng)富有挑戰(zhàn)性、能振奮人心、能給人帶來交際的快樂&&能夠完全改變你的生活態(tài)度。它能使一個(gè)情緒低落、無精打采的人變得快樂并精力充沛。能使一個(gè)肌肉松垮、行動(dòng)笨拙的人變得肌肉結(jié)實(shí)、生活規(guī)律、舉止優(yōu)雅。醫(yī)生告訴我們，鍛煉身體既是減輕壓力的必要手段，也能幫助使我們的心肺處于良好的工作狀態(tài)。
Lesson15 Exercise for Ever!
In our pursuit of good health and shapeliness, most of us think immediately of dieting. If only we could eat less, we think, we'd soon be slim, happy and life would be problem-free.
It's true that dieting is one answer, though it can be the most agonizing and psychologically destructive, so why not think about it another way. Maybe it's not that we eat too much, but that we exercise too little. Most of us lead terribly sedentary lives; when we're not sitting at our office desks, we're sitting on a bus or a train or in a car or in front of the telly, and we very rarely go for a good brisk walk, let alone exert ourselves more vigorously.
Taking regular exercise can mean that you can eat decent, satisfying amounts, while not endangering your figure at all. Exercise, or better still sport - since sport is challenging, exciting and socially enjoyable too - can change your whole attitude to life. It can change a depressive, lethargic person into a happy, active one. It can change a flabby, clumsy person into a firm, perfectly controlled, and graceful one.
Exercise, so the doctors tell us, is a necessary antidote to stress, and it will help to keep your heart and lungs working well too.
